Question 17
Hydrogen can be produced on a larger scale by collecting the gas produced in the reaction over water, as shown in the diagram on the next page. You could try this for yourself.
Additional safety guidance: Treat this as a teacher-supervised classroom collection demonstration, not a home experiment. The teacher selects a small scale and dilute acid. Wear safety glasses. Keep the delivery path open, never seal a gas-producing system, and keep flames away from the generator and collected gas.
